General Comments/Congratulations/Venting/Commiserations,etc:
I am shocked and excited that I got in. I can't believe it. I really can't believe it. The thing with Ivy League admissions is that it really is completely random. I knew girl who applied last year from my school who was just as qualified as me and she was rejected. To those who are not accepted, look at it this way: obviously, if you applied to Yale, you are an extroardinary person and Yale is missing out in not accepting you. But truly, don't sweat it, Yale's an amazing place, but getting into Yale is not like getting into heaven.</p>
